A Mexican-American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist sings of love, heartbreak, and rising rents.
As La Doña, San Francisco-born Cecilia Cassandra Peña-Govea composes songs that explore radical brown femininity and blend the sounds of the Caribbean, reggaeton, and hip-hop. In 2020, her song “Quién Me La Paga” was the first of New York Times Magazine’s “19 Song That Matter Now.” Her EP, Algo Nuevo, was selected by the San Francisco Chronicle as one of the six best albums of 2020, and former president Barack Obama included La Doña’s single “Penas con Pan” on his 2023 summer playlist.
“La Doña skillfully weaves traditions that span the Americas into her own distinctly Bay Area sound and fills our hearts with fire to fight for a better world.” — KQED
